Yah....definitely not hating on my friends lack of integration hehe....But such a weird vibe when I have my new toy whatever( i am sooo not rich) and I am greeted by my so called friends with harsh negativity.
1. "ewww you paid how much for that?"
2. "Im waiting for the price to go down"
3. "Dude are you rich or something"
Maka me crazy...Not a typo just MAKA ME CRAZY

I've got a few Luddite friends as well. They're always good for an interesting 21st century conversation.

I called my girlfriend and told her that our new phones were going to have youtube on them. She has no idea what that is and wouldn't know what iPhone was if I did show her the Keynote. They should let people know what things are.

Well many people I would say 35+ Who were around before or during the tech boom may not know as much as those who were born and grew up with all of this. I say we call them Digital Imigrants
